The Bird Island is an island in Lake Constance, with an area of around 600 square meters . It is located approximately 230 meters northwest of the mouth of the Leiblach before the city of Lindau , district Reutin . On it is the red pier light of the harbor entrance of the Marina Lindau-Zech . The island is declared a bird sanctuary .
